Riding a small boat, slowly moving forward in a strange-looking cave, the fireflies above your head are like stars twinkling in the sky, and there are exclamations of admiration from time to time in the darkness...
Recently, the Firefly Water Cave and Underground Grand Canyon in Yishui County were flooded with friends. After CCTV's "News Network" and "Rural Travel and Revitalization" special programs reported on this place respectively, during November this year, the total number of visitors to the firefly water cave reached 84,000, and many tourists came to admire it, and after watching it, they shouted: Yishui is really more than beautiful!
A little fluorescence gathered in the village, and the face was fullAs the location of the scenic spot of "Firefly Water Cave and Underground Grand Canyon", Simendong Village is mainly karst landforms, which was originally not conducive to agricultural development, but the local area has embarked on a road of rural revitalization of harmonious coexistence between scenic spots and villages, mutual benefit and win-win results.
"In the past, this was a poor mountain village, and the income of the villagers and the village collective was limited. At that time, the scenic area was not optimally developed, the supporting facilities were not perfect, and many tourists would ask where suitable hotels could stay nearby after visiting the scenic area. Xu Yangmin, secretary of the party branch of Simendong Village, told reporters that it is precisely because of the demand of tourists, coupled with the location characteristics of Simendong Village, that Simendong Village began to develop tourism economy, and the whole village ate "tourist rice". "We actively strive for funds from higher authorities, and use idle resources such as barren slopes and vacant homesteads in the village to develop industrial projects such as Huazhu Dongxianju Boutique Homestay and Moon Town Leisure Shopping Center, and rural tourism has gradually prospered." Xu Yangmin said.
While developing the Linyi economy, the village appearance and village appearance of the village also took advantage of this shareholder wind. Simendong Village has always adhered to the development concept of "building in scenic villages, villages in scenic spots", perfectly integrating the protection of traditional villages and the construction of characteristic pastoral villages, preserving the style of Yimeng Village such as ancient streets, ancient alleys, small bridges and flowing water to the greatest extent, and repairing more than 5,000 square meters of stone roads, bluestone walls and red tile houses. "Some time ago, the scenic area held a firefly cultural festival, which provided a platform for many enterprises and farmers to exhibit and sell, and also attracted guests from all over the world for our homestay. During the November and Twin Festival holidays, there is an endless stream of guests who come to visit and stay, and the average occupancy rate of homestays is above 90%. Liu Xue, the operator of the Huazhu Dongxian residential accommodation, said.
In order to better play the leading role of party building, the village party branch registered the Yishui Simendong Rural Economic Professional Cooperative, and villagers enjoyed the dividends of village development by investing in homesteads, opening farmhouses, and participating in tourism services. At present, the village has more than 80 migrant workers in the scenic area, and there are more than 30 stalls selling local products provided free of charge for villagers in the scenic area alone, and villagers can achieve employment at their doorstep, with an average income of 29,000 yuan per household and a collective income of 330,000 yuan.
Credit points add a background, and the countryside is rich in civilizationWhen tourists come to Simendong Village, they will find a "strange" phenomenon - three or five villagers often gather in front of the bulletin board of the credit square in the village, and they are watching and talking. For the villagers of Simendong Village, it is very important to come and look at the credit announcement on the bulletin board.
"I usually actively participate in volunteer services, forest protection and fire prevention, various publicity activities, etc. organized by the village, and now I have a total of 1,065 virtue points, in addition to going to the supermarket to exchange things, the town government also issued me a 'letter user' house number, and gave priority to recommend my family as a 'provincial beautiful courtyard demonstration household', I feel very proud." Villager Wang Yan has been named "AAA Credit User" for two consecutive years, and she went to the village credit supermarket to exchange credit points for biscuits, peach crisps and other items, and donated them to needy households.
The virtue points mentioned by Wang Yan are an important part of Yishui County's implementation of virtue credit construction in recent years. The "virtue credit score" is divided into 6 levels of "AAA, AA, A, B, C, D" from high to low, and the masses above grade A can enjoy positive incentives such as honor incentives, financial support, and policy preferences in addition to receiving material rewards, while those below grade C will be subject to negative punishments such as qualification restrictions, credit thresholds, and cancellation of the evaluation of outstanding trees.
Rural revitalization should not only make the environment beautiful and the pockets bulge, but also civilized trees and rich spirits. In recent years, Simendong Village has insisted on integrating the construction of virtue and credit into grassroots governance, guiding the masses to spontaneously participate in matters such as patrols on duty, mediating conflicts and disputes, and repairing public facilities, so that "invisible virtues" have a "visible grasp", forming a governance pattern of joint construction, co-governance and sharing.
Virtue credit threads, mutual assistance for the elderly benefits the hearts of the peopleUsing the "needle thread" of Meide Credit, Simendong Village also explored and implemented the "virtue credit + heart-warming canteen" mutual aid pension model.
"We have vacated the vacant houses of the village committee and transformed them into a heart-warming canteen, providing free brunches for 20 elderly people over 80 years old in the village every day, so that the elderly can eat hot meals, and solve the problem of the elderly and lonely elderly having difficulty cooking and worrying about eating." Xu Yangmin told reporters that Simendong Village has incorporated the volunteer service of the warm heart canteen into the credit system evaluation system, as an important item in the assessment, attracting a large number of volunteers to actively participate in the canteen operation and daily service.
"In the past, it was inconvenient to cook by myself, and I always ate foolishly, but now it's different, not only do I not have to worry about eating, but the village prepares us a variety of fresh vegetables, meat, eggs and milk every day, which is delicious and healthy for us every day." Xu Xinglong, an 84-year-old man in the village, said that for some elderly people like them with mobility difficulties, the village also specially recruited 7 volunteer food delivery workers to provide door-to-door meal delivery services, so that where the needs of the elderly are, the service supply will follow.
As a key village of rural tourism in China, through the construction of virtue credit, Simendong Village has further established a good reputation of "Integrity Simendong", where tourists are more assured of consumption, accommodation is more comfortable, and the number of tourists continues to grow. Since the beginning of this year, the village's tourism revenue has increased by 15% year-on-year, and the village's collective income has increased by 12% year-on-year, and the boosting effect of virtue credit construction in rural revitalization has been fully reflected in Simendong Village.
"Now we are vigorously building a model of rural revitalization in Qilu, villages and villages have good shows, my family happens to live in the scenic area, next, we must further activate and utilize the advantages of scenic villages, combine beautiful rural construction, integration of agriculture, culture and tourism, etc., enrich cultural tourism formats, promote rural revitalization, and achieve common prosperity." Talking about the future development of Simendong Village, Xu Yangmin's eyes are full of longing.
